Thank you 50 plus, caregivers, and professional readers, advertisers, writers, designers, distributors, coalitions, and printers from all the staff and management of 50 Plus Marketplace News, Inc.
May 2016 begins our 26th year of serving the communities of the Front Range. We have truly been blessed with many passionate contributors for their time and energy in making our popular publication the very best information resource in 100 cities across the Front Range.
Our vision is to “increase the economic well being and the quality of life of all agers!” Based on all the feedback we receive at the 70 plus Resource Fairs we sponsor and support annually, we continue to complete that mission.
As I’ve always said, “If you like what we do, tell your friends and neighbors. If not, tell Robert!”
Our publication began in March of 1991 with several friends going door to door meeting businesses who wanted to serve the seniors of their Boulder County community. We found 55 businesses and launched the Boulder County Seniors Marketplace News edition in May of 1991! We have many to thank for believing in us at that time.
In September of 1992, we were approached by a number of Larimer County organizations wanting their edition. It was launched in November of 1992. Weld County followed in June of 1993. In 1994, we saw the launch of Jefferson County, Arapahoe County, Douglas, Elbert and Summit counties. Adams and Denver counties followed in May of 1995.
Recognizing that agers didn’t consider themselves seniors, we changed our name to 50 Plus Marketplace News in April 2006. We combined the counties represented in the Denver Council of Regional Governments into one edition and continue to operate the four monthly community editions… Boulder, Larimer, Weld and Denver-Metro.
There are so many worthy supporters to thank. Any attempt to list them would be a challenge as many have considered 50 Plus to be their business and personal message bearer in their communities. So humbly, we just say THANK YOU COLORADO! for allowing us to carry your message to the agers of the Front Range and Hip Hip Hurray for all your generous support over these 25 wonderful years! Here’s to many, many more!
